Customer Feedback:
American Chimney Services
“My fireplace was leaking during heavy rains. The other company I asked could not help me fix the problem, but Warm Solutions put a ‘hurricane cap’ on, and now it never leaks! They were very efficient and were able to provide me with what I needed.”

Customer Feedback:
Brende & Lamb Tree & Shrub Care
“I’ve been using Brende & Lamb for 10 years. I have some trees that are very hard to control, and they care for them perfectly. I run a bed and breakfast, so it is important to me that they come when we do not have guests. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!”

Customer Feedback:
McKinley Painting
“They were very professional and did a beautiful job on the exterior of my home. It was clean, quality work, and they always took the time to answer my questions. They did everything just as they said they would, and took the time to remove all of the old paint before putting on the new color. Because of the quality of their work, I am sure that this paint job will last for a long time!”

The Window Specialist
“I found them in The Good Service Guide, and had them install windows in the front of my house. They are #1! They are friendly, have good prices, and quality products. Tom knows what he’s talking about, and he doesn’t try to push you or throw a sales pitch at you.”
